InkSplash: The Art of Impressions

Exhibit dates: Sat., November 18- Sun., December 17, 2017

Artist's Opening Reception: Sunday November 19, 2017 2-6PM

Gallery hours: weekends Saturdays and Sundays, 12-4pm

Inksplash: The Art of Impressions is an invitational exhibition of artists who make impressions. Printmakers are capable of producing multiple images from the same plate or matrix. Each print produced is not a copy but considered an original impression, revealing unique qualities and variations.

The RAA Press Printmaking Studio is the heart of the printmaking community in Rockaway, Queens. We will be exhibiting prints by the many local artists who have taught and attended our printmaking workshops as well as the many printmakers who have contributed to our ongoing print community at RAA.

“The community of artists we have gathered to exhibit in InkSplash: the Art of Impressions come from diverse backgrounds and have distinct styles that embody the depth, breadth and beauty of Printmaking.” Victoria Barber

InkSplash: The Art of Impressions will feature works using a variety of printmaking processes ranging from traditional (intaglio, relief, lithography, solarplate, bookmaking and screen printing) to experimental. These works address a variety of topics concerning design, representation, and abstraction.

I was sorting through my journals because I had to take them down from their home, the top shelves, to prepare for renovation of my art office/storage area. I thought I had 30 journals. After counting, I found that I had 130, of all different sizes.

The show explores the value of reflection upon the my daily life, be it in written word, or hand drawn sketches. The visceral impact that the past observations have had on my current work are impossible to overlook.
